Why Learning the Unix Shell?
This is the question that you probably asked yourself
the first time you saw someone doing something with it.
Well, Unix Shell is actually a must have skill for any well respectable computer scientist.
There are indeed several reasons to learn using it, here are some:

It is the only way to communicate with servers, because they don’t have a graphical
user interface.

You can program in the Shell! Unix Shell provides a set of special commands that can
be used to create Scripts. Scripts are programs that can execute in a loop a series of
commands. You can even create scripts that automatically fix your code!

You look like a hacker, when you use it! (If you really want to look like a pro,
go to settings and make the shell background black, with green text).
